Ted's Aqua Marine from Indianapolis has a tournament in late October each year on KY/BY lakes for Indiana resident only and typically has 200-300 boats and they went out of Kentucky Dam. I have not fished it in 4-5yrs and my father/I were fishing on our pond last night and he asked me about it.

All fish were released alive back into the lake utilizing a live release boat courtesy of the FLW. The weigh in, for this the third largest tournament held on Kentucky Lake each year, went smoothly thanks to the efforts of Jeff and Terri Rude, Jim and Becki Gossman and Paul and Margo Jolly, Directors of the Hoosier Open Team Bass Circuit.
